Mavs looking to re-sign J.J. Barea
Updated: October 26, 2014, 5:14 PM ET By Marc Stein | ESPN.com
The Minnesota Timberwolves are in the process of finalizing a buyout for
veteran guard J.J. Barea that should enable Barea to become a free agent early
next week, according to league sources.
Sources told ESPN.com that Barea will be waived by the Wolves before Monday's 5
p.m. deadline for teams to cut rosters down to 15 players and possibly as early
as Sunday.
Sources say that the Dallas Mavericks, meanwhile, are planning to re-sign Barea
next week once he clears waivers. Barea is expected to clear because his
salary-cap number for the coming season is $4.5 million.
The Mavericks would have to create a roster spot to make room for Barea but can
do so by trading or releasing guard Gal Mekel or big man Greg Smith.
Barea would be the second member of the Mavs' 2011 championship team to return
to the franchise in recent months after Dallas reacquired center Tyson Chandler
in June in a trade with the New York Knicks.
灰狼已经买断JJB，以让球员名单降至15人。
如果JJB没有，被人认领走，小牛有兴趣将其签回来
但小牛15人名单满了，如果要签下JJB，可能会尝试交易或释出Mekel或者G.Smith
如果JJB回归，就是拳王之后这几个月以来第二位冠军成员回归小牛了
心得：G.Smith应该不用担心会被裁掉，除非他能交易回来更好的内线
不然如果拳王受伤了，难道Dirk要去扛五号吗
至于Mekel又被卷入去留风波中
单论第三控卫，JJB最少已经证明可以在NBA常规赛中替轮替作出正常贡献
如果是以JJB替换Mekel，阵容最少不会比现在差，尤其卡帅还有JJB使用说明书
不过比起Mekel，Ledo和比克也可能是被裁掉的可能人选
【Mekel看起来有练起来的可能阿，裁掉ledo或比克吧】
就看这几天有没有球队要认领JJB然后才知道后续的发展会如何
Never Say No to J.J. Barea
